And apparently I totally missed that Fika had closed! That's too bad. — Tribeca Teacher on Maison Kayser on Harrison is closed

Don't know if this is the same company as the original one in France, or if this a franchise operation, or whatever, but clearly they are overextended. In addition to the Manhattan closures, they also closed both their places in DC last month (opened in February 2018) and their London locations were closed in May. Don't know what's happening in France... or what will happen here next. And let's face it, their stuff was good but not that good. https://london.frenchmorning.com/2019/05/17/deux-ans-apres-son-ouverture-la-boulangerie-maison-kayser-londres-ferme-ses-portes/ https://frenchmorning.com/laventure-sarrete-pour-maison-kayser-a-washington-dc/ — Eric on Maison Kayser on Harrison is closed

Why the obsession with Sonia Stock, James? A "1st class coward"? Really? You clearly know nothing about her. — Bruce Hood on Where in Tribeca?

no surprise. can't afford $50,000-$100,000 a month rent from greedy landlords. Its very sad, every nice place that opens sooner for later closes. — native on Maison Kayser on Harrison is closed

I am so disappointed as it was my fave cup of java. Equally shocked that their loyal clientele were not given any notice. And what happened to the employees?! I can’t help but wonder. Will miss their coffee and super yummy bread. — Jessica on Maison Kayser on Harrison is closed

Benvenuto Cafe on Franklin/Greenwich is open 24/7 — Andrew on Maison Kayser on Harrison is closed

Well, not true. There's Gee Whiz (6a), Tribeca's Kitchen, PQ, both Kaffes (6:30a), Gotan, what else can people add?? — Tribeca Citizen on Maison Kayser on Harrison is closed

Congratulations!! You are so amazingly talented! The Studio looks fantastic. — Dawn Piano on New Kid on the Block: 81 Leonard Gallery

How odd. It was a nice addition to the neighborhood, although Harrison Restaurant will always be in my heart. — Andy on Maison Kayser on Harrison is closed

What a bummer. It was the only place open at 7am in the neighborhood. — Em on Maison Kayser on Harrison is closed

Amazing studio.. Can’t wait to see more — Quincy Artt on New Kid on the Block: 81 Leonard Gallery

The Maison Kaysers on Bleecker St and Broadway at 13th St. are also both closed. Hope this isn't a falling dominoes thing. Was a fan of the breads and breakfast bakery items for a Sunday morning treat. Sandwiches for grab-and-go were excellent and so was the seasonal gazpacho...both red and green! — Susan Swan on Maison Kayser on Harrison is closed

Not a good idea. Last thing people want is to live next to the world's tallest jail. — John on Jail will “demap” a piece of White Street for 500-foot tower

Hi there John, great question. Ideally, folks will use either the paper bags from dispensers located at each of the dog runs, or the scooper (also available at each). The short video linked in the write-up above shows how quick & easy it's intended to be. Nonetheless, throughout the pilot we'll be measuring the amount of contamination (plastic bags, trash, etc.) found in bins – both to see how people are reacting to the program, and how we might do a better job of educating the public. Hope that's helpful to you. Nick Sbordone Battery Park City Authority — Nick Sbordone on Battery Park City will compost dog waste at its dog runs

What?! First Arcade, now this. (I never went to just baked) Thank goodness for Grandaisy. But where are we to get a quality baguette? — Carblover on Maison Kayser on Harrison is closed

We dropped by yesterday to buy some pastries and they told us that it was the last day but they weren’t supposed to tell anyone. Very strange. — Julia on Maison Kayser on Harrison is closed

Question: I assume they will not "pasturize" all the plastic bags people use to pick up the poop and deposit in the bins. Does that means BPCA staff must sort through 75 pounds of it every day to sort the goo from the bags?? If so, does that job come equipped with hazmat suits? — John on Battery Park City will compost dog waste at its dog runs

It's a lovely space and the servers are very accommodating, but the prices are really high considering the portion sizes, even by Tribeca standards. — K on New Kids on the Block: Canal Street Oysters

Extremely excited for the new addition to the hood, a few thoughts: - $22 for a burger that may or may not include fries? And $12 for a side of fries? My lord. - "It’s the last street the community doesn’t mind having a bar on” a very true statement which will probably get blasted on this blog. I'd personally rather have a bar than an empty storefront, but I know I'm in the minority here. — DB on New Kids on the Block: Canal Street Oysters

I hate these film shoots and wanted to reach out to you guys and the other press. Films shoot companies have been taking over the streets of tribeca daily for years and years. I live on church and Duane and its so damn annoying these signs go up everyday. The people are annoying. Have blocked my bldg doors, smoking in front of our doors. leaving garbage all over the streets...I have called many times the douchbag location scout phone number most of the times names "TOM" and they never answer or call back. These guys cause massive traffic in tribeca, block fire trucks sometimes, block the black boxes so cant see the walk or stop sign, etc. Yesterday the damn cones blocked all of church street and the city sanitation truck that cleans the curbes and streets couldnt get to it. That is absurd....Ticket them like you ticket the regular folks like me. Absurd that this mayor who grants these shoots permits is few blocks down. Send one of those corrupt lazy politicians to walk the streets up and down in tribeca. please...I will give you a damn tour. The cone guys----great job they have. most assholes barely employed and homeless most of the time hanging and making noise all times of night hanging with their family or whatever they are. Its so damn annoying...And they dont clean up or take down any of the yellow/orange/whatever color signs they heavily tape on anything they can find(light polls, cones, street signs, fire hyrants.) Its disgusting and it is their lazy ass responsibility to take every sign down and dispose of in the garbage. But 90% of time the streets of Tribeca are covered with fill shoot sign crap...Go check it out...Tribeca is supposed to be like the most expensive place to live and a nice place to bring up a family but sure looks like a shithole mostly because of these film shoot people. Not only did NYC DOT take away every damn spot in tribeca so not one person can park on any street anywhere in tribeca but low life city employees, they double park and cause constant back ups and traffic. Its not right and wonder why we all hate the Mayor...Cost 600+ dollars a month to park in a garage for me because the city thinks they are better than the long term tax payers. They dont force me to live here but being here since 1998 in same apartment I am so sick of the city and how little they care about the taxpaying people or the film business. If you want to know how i really feel would be more than happy to bring this up and put penalties of like 10k per sign that is left up. I bet the city will be spotless after that....and if they catch a sign after shoot is over they cannot apply for permits for 1 to 3 years. Lesson learned IMO Will be more than happy to speak with any reported and blow this up....I really hate these companies with a passion... — adam glassman on Neighbors frustrated over latest film shoot offense

Well, I wouldn't have guessed it given their busy foot traffic, but Maison Kayser appears to have closed. Passed by earlier today and it was shuttered with no products in the display cases, and the Tribeca location has been scrubbed from their website: http://maison-kayser-usa.com/locations/ Can you confirm if this is true, and find out why they closed (usual lease renewal, or something else?)? Although technically it's a chain and I know there are others elsewhere in the city, this feels like a huge loss to the neighborhood. :( — Scott on First Impressions: Maison Kayser

That's why my shoes come off at my front door.... — Robert Ripps on Where in Tribeca?
